Rainfall on Earth is most intense in the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), a narrow belt
of clouds centred on average around six degrees north of the Equator. The mean position of …

The present interglacial, the Holocene, spans the period of the last 11,700 years. It has
sustained the growth and development of modern society. The millennial-scale decreasing …

The origin of the temperature divergence between Holocene proxy reconstructions and
model simulations remains controversial, but it possibly results from potential biases in the …

Cooling during most of the past two millennia has been widely recognized, and has been
inferred to be the dominant global temperature trend of the past 11,700 years (the Holocene …

A recent temperature reconstruction of global annual temperature shows Early Holocene
warmth followed by a cooling trend through the Middle to Late Holocene [Marcott SA, et al …

Interglacials, including the present (Holocene) period, are warm, low land ice extent (high
sea level), end‐members of glacial cycles. Based on a sea level definition, we identify …

Flooding is a pervasive natural hazard—costly in both human and economic terms—and
climate change will probably exacerbate risks around the world. Mountainous areas, such …

We present a new gridded climate reconstruction for Europe for the last 12,000 years based
on pollen data. The reconstruction is an update of Davis et al.(2003) using the same …

We analyze the global variations in the timing and magnitude of the Holocene Thermal
Maximum (HTM) and their dependence on various forcings in transient simulations covering …

Freshwater (FW) forcing is widely identified as the dominant mechanism causing reductions
of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a climate tip** point that led to …
